Intergalactic conquest with an AI

Rex was an ordinary salaryman, resigned to a dull life of monotony in a towering megacity. But his world shatters when he's conscripted by Nexum Dynamics, a ruthless megacorporation, and thrust into a brutal war for a barren, alien world. The planet holds unimaginable riches, but it’s also swarming with the Krhyssari, an insectoid race that dominates the surface with their hive-mind precision and relentless aggression. Amid the carnage, Rex had an extraordinary encounter with Cleo, an ancient AI, a survivor of a long-extinct civilization. Cleo isn't just an artificial intelligence; she’s a consciousness imbued with memories of her people's interstellar empire and equipped with advanced bio-nanotechnology. Offering Rex a new purpose and unmatched power, she transforms his fragile human body into a hybrid of living metal and flesh, making him the ultimate weapon. But Cleo is more than a tool of war. As she journeys alongside Rex, her cold, logical algorithms evolve, shaped by his humanity. Together, they form a bond that transcends the boundaries of man and machine, discovering love in the midst of chaos. As Rex and Cleo fight for survival, they uncover a shared ambition, to rise as intergalactic overlords, uniting or conquering the galaxy. New chapters everyday at 13 p.m. [GMT+8 time]

Station Siege

Cleo, unfazed by their banter, nodded once more. "Rex's assessment is accurate. If we can secure the station, it will give us a significant strategic advantage. The asteroid belt's natural layout will provide cover, and the station itself has docking facilities that we can repurpose for larger-scale operations."

Carlos finally sat back, processing everything. "Alright, so let me get this straight. We head to the station, wipe out the pirates, and convince the traders to let us stay. Sounds... ambitious."

"Affirmative," Cleo replied simply.

Rex clapped his hands together, the sound cutting through the room. "Then what are we waiting for?" he said, standing up with a grin. "Let's get to it."

Cleo turned off the holo-display, her sharp gaze sweeping across the team. "We'll move out immediately. Rex, Carlos, and Ys prepare for deployment. I'll coordinate the fleet to ensure backup is ready if needed."
